THE MOURNING HYPOCRITES - LYRICS
1. +
I dream of days that never grow
My slumber feels like a horror show
Red sun is starting to rise up high
And I wake up feeling dead
I know that I should be afraid
Fall back and try to understand
Wild thoughts occupy my mind
Feel the need to scream...
I hear the hounds scratching at my door
Smells like their fear has settled on the floor
Black night is spreading outside
Return to mother’s womb
Back on mother’s side…
Oh close your eyes…
Come on and feel mother-fucking calm..
2.The Settler
The settler comes and goes
and he arranges all
He's not the average man you'll see
It's who you need and want him to be
He's making way through any wall
Just like a bullet that wont stop
The settler comes and goes
and he arranges all
The settler comes and goes
The settler walks a thousand miles,
with dust and sand under his shoes
He knows how to take your pain
but you will have to pay for it
The settler comes and goes
and he arranges all
The settler comes and goes
He's walking down a lonesome road
you'll see him knocking at your door
wearing always cheap perfume
his eyes are fire piercing you
Selling you all kinds of shit
'til you get fed up with it
The settler comes and goes
and he arranges all
The settler comes and goes
3. As I'm lowered down
When I close my eyes don’t hesitate, just take my hand
Take my hand
If we share the peace and silence, now just take my hand
Take my hand
Lets return into our nothingness, just take my hand
Take my hand
And if we owe you a love song friend, now come on just take my hand
Take my hand
Understand
And I can hear your call
The sun refused to show
If you are scarred for what’s inside, step on cause
I can hear your call
The sun refused to show
I know a place where we can hide from all
Cause I can hear your call
I cannot see no more
It is the world I leave behind for more
Now take my hand
And I can hear your call
And I can see no more
I know a place where we can hide from all
And I can hear all calls
You cannot see me more
It’s the soil that swallow me, I’m now
Gone
4. The Boleskine House
As I sink within my mind
And I cross the path I choose
Then I feel the world is blind
We’ve got nothing left to lose
We have nothing to sing no more
We just wait the morning light
And we’ll reach the end of time
With our hearts so full of spite
I’ve got the hammer and the nails
I want to take you with me
To remember..
To remember..
I ‘m in despair of Thee and Time,
Don’t wanna take you with me
We owe ourselves to death
We owe ourselves to death
We owe ourselves to death
From the first to the last breath
Don’t wanna share myself again
I wanna be alone
Don’t wanna give my life to you no more
Don’t wanna live this life in shame
I want to lose control
Don’t wanna sing my songs for you no more
And the light comes crushing in
Like a desire to rebel
5. Why Are We Awake
Another morning
And I feel out of the path
Another riddle
Thinkin’ about the aftermath
One more dribble
Inside life’s secret maze
Our eyes will suffer
'Cause they’re gonna miss a face
Tell me why are we awake?
Tell me why are we awake?
Tell me why are we awake?
We are proudly ashamed...
I feel proud
Like anything fragile
Never praying
For some kind of exile
If's, buts, maybes
And I walk the streets astray
As we slowly
Lose control of our decay
Tell me why are we awake?
Tell me why are we awake?
Tell me why are we awake?
Why dont we go to sleep?
Oh pain dont leave me, tonight
Dont save me Lord this night
6. Absynthian
Come drink with me and let the story now be told
of a
Green goddess in a bottle that lets you dive into an emerald world
In a red light room, with no window view
She took my mind down a magic route
I’m gonna travel, at the back of a green unicorn
Come on and listen to the fairys call
She’ll lead right where you need to go
Come on and fall into the deep rabbit hole
Half a bottle later and I walk into an Amsterdam Bar
Hitting shots of whiskey with a guy named Tod
And I see her again, waving her green little hand
Seducing me in a lucid dream
Im gonna dance now, like there’s no tomorrow
Come on and listen to the fairys call
She’ll lead right where you need to go
Come on and fall into the deep rabbit hole
Dive into the...
Come and dive into the deep, deep rabbit hole
You can dance, you can laugh you can do anything you want
You can
Sleep all day and night, you can fuck you can meet
You can do anything you like
7. Mourning
A down and dirty cleanliness
Is like a loose crap tightness
A maximal minimalism
The finish line in other prism
It would be fan to take a trip
And put some acid in our veins
All day - All night
I sometimes think to walk away
And you can make my skin to..
Go down, all way
I’ll lead you in a darker day
Wherever, forever
Mourning Hypocrites they will console
And never, forever,
Never go to sleep, until they’re whole
Why are we awake ?
Proudly ashamed
Why are we awake ?
We keep on hanging
Proudly ashamed
We keep on fighting
All alone we flow
Alone we’re dying
All alone we’ll go
We’re just a photo on a wall
All alone we go
we keep on hanging
All alone you know, you know
we keep on hanging
All alone you know, you know, you know
we keep on dying
All aloooone you know ?
Why Are We Awake ?
And you’re still hanging
Proudly Ashamed, I know..
We keep on crawling on the floor
